Eagle Sauce: The 055 destroyer was launched into the sea just after the founding of the country?
Chapter 559 Morning Star Project, launched!
After hearing Fang Yu's introduction, all the senior officials of the Dragon Kingdom present fell into a brief silence.
Slowly digesting the introduction that sounded like a heavenly book from Fang Yu's mouth.
After a long time.
Liu Yadong put down his pen and pondered for a moment.
"Comrade Fang Yu, if these four technologies can be realized, they will indeed completely change the form of air combat."
"How long would it take to develop such an aircraft, though?"
“Ten years? Twenty years?”
"Besides, it's not just a matter of time. The cost of developing this kind of aircraft is probably an astronomical figure, right?"
Hearing Liu Yadong's words, Fang Yu shook his head.
“If you start from scratch, it will take a long time.”
"But we can learn from the experience of the JF-17, skip some intermediate steps, and directly target the core technologies of the fourth-generation aircraft."
"I think if we put our full effort into it, we could have a prototype flying within a year."
"Furthermore, I estimate that R&D funding can be reduced to less than $5 million..."
"One year?! Five hundred million?!"
Upon hearing this, there was a sound of people sucking in their breath in shock in the conference hall.
Everyone's face was filled with complicated expressions.
Five hundred million a year.
This sounds like an astronomical figure.
This is especially true for the Long Kingdom, which has just emerged from a state of disrepair.
But when you think about paying just this amount of money, you can get a dream plane that can rival the ones in science fiction novels.
This little bit of money and time doesn't seem to be much...
Liu Yadong and other members of the Military Commission looked at each other, with shock and determination in their eyes.
After a long silence, Liu Yadong stood up and said.
"Well, since you are so sure..."
Liu Yadong gritted his teeth and said, "Then we should set up a special R&D team to develop this aircraft!"
"The research and development codename is 'Morning Star Project' and reports directly to the Military Commission."
"Comrade Fang Yu, you will be in charge of this project. Is there any problem?"
Hearing this, Fang Yu smiled.
He knew that no one could resist the temptation of a fourth-generation fighter.
He stood up, straightened his back and saluted.
"Resolutely complete the mission!"
……
A week later.
On the outskirts of the imperial capital, inside a temporarily converted hangar, the lights were brightly on.
A dozen carefully selected top aviation experts sat on both sides of the long table.
Among them are fighter designers, aerodynamicists, materials experts, avionics system engineers, and even several outstanding pilots drawn from front-line troops.
The desk was littered with various reference materials, calculation papers, and coffee cups.
The purpose of their coming here is to assist Fang Yu in developing a new generation of Dragon Country fighter jets.
However, they don't know the specific details at all.
A moment later, Fang Yu, the host of this meeting, finally arrived.
As he arrived, a huge drawing board was pushed up.
"Comrades, I know you're all wondering what kind of plane I'm going to build when I gather you all here."
"And now, I can tell everyone!"
Then, Fang Yu took a deep breath and slowly uncovered the cloth covering the drawing board.
As the fabric slid off, a never-before-seen fighter jet design was completely presented to everyone - this was the J-20 design that he drew with his own hands.
The room suddenly fell silent, with only the sound of several experts gasping for breath.
The aircraft on the drawing board was unlike any they had ever known.
The fuselage has a strange geometric shape. It does not have the rounded lines of conventional fighter jets, but is a complex composed of multiple planes and sharp angles.
The wings blend into the fuselage, forming a "diamond" outline; the nose is flat and wide, like some kind of predatory reptile.
The vertical tail is not a traditional vertical design, but is tilted outward to form a pair of "eight" characters.
The whole design looks fierce, mysterious and threatening, like a UFO that broke into the future.
“What…what is this?”
Professor Li, an old expert from the Aviation Design Institute, muttered to himself, pointing at the drawing with trembling fingers.
“It doesn’t look like an airplane, it looks more like… a science fiction spaceship.”
Fang Yu's mouth corners lifted slightly.
"This is what the fourth-generation fighter looks like. I named it the 'J-20'."
“Can this design… fly?”
An aerodynamics expert asked in disbelief, his eyes fixed on the lines on the drawing that did not conform to conventional aerodynamic principles.
"These edges and angles appear to create significant turbulence and drag."
"Not only can it fly, it can fly better than any existing fighter."
Fang Yu confidently picked up a piece of chalk and drew a simple airflow model on the blackboard next to the drawing.
"This is not the way traditional aerodynamics works."
"This design may seem unconventional, but it's actually designed to achieve the first of the '4S' I mentioned earlier - invisibility."
He turned to the crowd, his eyes determined.
"These special geometric shapes can scatter radar waves in different directions, greatly reducing the radar cross-sectional area."
"Simply put, it will be 'invisible' to enemy radar."
There was an uproar in the conference room. Experts stood up and gathered around the drawing board to carefully study this revolutionary design.
Their expressions gradually changed from initial shock and suspicion to amazement and excitement.
“The design of these air intakes… genius!”
Engine expert Mr. Wang exclaimed as he ran his finger over the DSI air intake on the drawing.
"It has no moving parts, yet it effectively controls airflow and reduces radar cross-section..."
“But this requires such precise calculations and manufacturing processes!”
"What's this groove under the belly of the aircraft?"
a structural engineer asked curiously.
"Weapon bay," Fang Yu explained, "conventional fighters hang missiles under their wings, which greatly increases radar reflection area and drag."
"The fourth-generation aircraft hides its weapons inside the fuselage and only opens the hatch when launching, maintaining optimal stealth and aerodynamic characteristics."
The atmosphere in the conference room gradually became heated.
The experts spoke one after another, each analyzing the innovations they saw in their own professional fields.
An elderly materials scientist stepped forward with a frown on his face.
"Team Leader Fang, this kind of complex surface geometry requires extremely high-precision processing and special materials. Can our current technology achieve this?"
Fang Yu nodded.
“That was indeed one of the biggest challenges. I have designed a new composite material and a precise molding process.”
He pulled another drawing from his briefcase, showing an entirely new material structure.
“This material is not only strong and lightweight, but also absorbs radar waves, further enhancing its stealth properties…”
